Giant Eight-Foot Alligator Makes Itself at Home on Front Porch in Louisiana

It was just an ordinary Sunday afternoon stroll through the scenic Belle Drive neighborhood of Breaux Bridge, Louisiana—except that an eight-foot-long alligator was the one doing the strolling.

Local Eddie Bruce recorded the rogue gator sauntering down the suburban street before it settled in for a breather on a resident’s shady front porch. Who knew that alligators have such good taste in porches?

Caught trespassing in Breaux Bridge. 8 foot. I believe his name is George.

It wasn’t long before a nuisance trapper and the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries were called, and fortunately, they were able to remove the rambling reptile before it caused any trouble, but not before a crowd of spectators gathered.
